    The 6.6L Gas is way underrated. It's a great motor, and if you don't do a lot of towing, the 6 speed is a better transmission than the 10. It's good to have another option though for the "every day" haulers.

      @@matthewanderson9912 I bought a 23 last fall and put an order in for a 24 back a month. I wanted the fresh from the beginning anyway, but needed a pickup in service for this spring. I think the 10 speed will be a game changer. My 23 does pretty good for a gas but there is a flat spot between 3rd to 4th that the 10 speed should really help with. If this thing tows like I think it will probably never buy another diesel. Still have a 2015 LML which I will keep for a long time, but these newer diesels are so high priced and so complex kind of looking forward to something more “simple”.

    • @matthewanderson9912
      @matthewanderson9912 Рік тому

      @@bradniehues9560 well I would like to have one because I do think it will be a very nice improvement towing grades. I’m not really complaining, but my biggest “complaint” is I always feel the 6 speed needs a gear between 2nd and 3rd. 2nd in the 6 speed is 2.36:1 and 3rd is 1.53:1. The 10 speed 2nd is 2.86:1 and then you have a 2.06:1 3rd and 1.72:1 4th and then 5th is 1.48:1.
      So my thing is I have an 8% grade that’s 2 miles long on a four lane highway with a 55 mph speed limit. Right now I have to be going around 65 mph and go WOT to be able to top out the hill above 55 mph. The problem is 3rd gear is just too tall and can’t maintain the 65 mph and my speed will fall to about 52-53 mph and 3000-3100 rpm and then shift to 2nd gear. 2nd is too short and so I end up spinning up to over 5,000 rpm and nearly 65 mph before the truck has to upshift to 3rd. At that point the speed and rpm slowly falls down to about 56-57 mph before I top out the hill.
      I really think the 10 speed will absolutely remedy that and will probably be able to pull the hill in 4th gear at around 54-56 mph. And if I need to accelerate it would do that too by shifting to 3rd and probably be able to do around 60 mph and probably be around 4000 rpm. But I don’t think I will trade. Interest rates are just too high and the rest of my grades are 6 and 7%. The 6% 3rd gear is plenty good to go 60 or better mph and the 7% I can hold 55 mph without having to force a downshift to 2nd. But if rebates start coming back or the interest rates fall I may get me one. Because I definitely love my current truck and the 10 speed will definitely make it better.

  • @gmpartsguy9614

    The lane change/passing part was all I needed to see. The 10 speed will let this 6.6 gas pull much better under load than the 6L90, even if 0-60mph wise its about the same as the 6 speed 6.6 gas.

      If only GM gives option on gear ratios in the rear like a choice of 4.10 for gas 4.30 diesels (2500 HD only plus max tow 4.30 for diesels) and up to 4.56 for diesel max tow in 3500 HD (4.30 gas) that will give it higher capacity for payload/towing and more low end grunt but mpg may be lower and men don't give a crap about that if you using it for it intended purposes.

The 18 inch wheels use a much higher 125 load index tire which grants trucks with the 18 inch wheel a stronger payload and in some cases higher tow rating. Same goes for trucks with the 20s which use a 126 load index tire.
      The only other application that gets actually DE-RATED on towing capacity is trucks like Alaskan Edition, Midnight and Z71 Sport that come with the 18 inch wheel but with the mud tire option. The mud tire they use is a 125 load index tire however, its tread design/compound was found to have handling concerns beyond 12,000lbs so trucks with that tire are de-rated down to 12,000lbs. Fortunately those special edtion trucks can be ordered with down to the standard 18 inch tire they use or in the case of the Midnight and Z71 Sport, can be optioned to 20s to restore that capacity.

    How's the oil consumption on the 6.6L gasser? Reading about consumption issues. GM thinks 1 quart consumed per 100 gallons of gasoline is "normal" haha 😂

      The Godzilla has its issues as well… Not hard to find the problem with that engine… It’s all out there. I have hundreds of customers with the 6.6 gas… And the percentage of them that have an oil consumption problem is next to nothing… I drove one for 10,000 miles…strictly towing a gooseneck and the truck did not use an ounce of oil… I have many repeat customers that are buying this engine as they add to their fleet. I’ve got customers with the 2020 model year which was the first year. Dump trucks, box trucks, stake bodies, Low cab forward, Isuzu NPR, no issues… My dealership has one of the largest commercial service departments within 300 miles. I keep a watch on everything going on… Quite frankly the most common issue we see are diesel trucks coming in with failing emissions components.

    • @truckguyjoe
      @truckguyjoe  Рік тому +4

      It's slightly slower 0-60 vs the 6 speed, based on my test of a 6.6 with 6 speed. I believe it's the gearing & the shift points that affect it. I will say that passing/merging acceleration is definitely quicker with the 10 speed. If we did a side-by-side roll from 50-80, the 10 speed would walk away. That's where the close ratio 4,5,6,7 gear shine!

      I heard a few years ago that they were working on a bigger V8 to fight against Ford Godzilla's 7.3L on more equal grounds.
      Supposedly it was meant to be "over 8.0L". Surely would be nice to have that engine pushing some 450 hp and 500 lb-ft or more, while still working quite understressed.
      Heck, at least a new 7.4L just to bring the "454" monicker back, plus could already surpass the Ford.
      But I have my doubts. They're even replacing the 5.3L V8 in the light duty role for the 2.7 Turbo-4.

      7.4 is not too bad consider the grades you probably were driving through at times. Hoping that will improve with the 10 speed.
      With that fuel mileage it’s hard to justify the extra costs for the diesel. Although the DMax makes the heavy loads more enjoyable towing.

      @@doug2202 if you're only towing a few times a year, the gas would be a good choice. Diesel does have the torque, and it's enjoyable to tow with that much grunt...but the diesel is $10K more...fuel costs more...and unfortunately the emissions systems are what make these modern diesels unreliable. Diesel is best for highway use. Day-to-day, stop & go, is hard on them (the particulate filter). I only tow with a diesel because of my CDL and I need a combination that's over 26K.
